Detailed Description

INTRODUCTION
Willows Farm represents an unusual prospect in the market, providing prospective purchasers with the opportunity to acquire a contemporary barn conversion together with a range of farm buildings, suitable for a number of uses (subject to planning).

The residential property, often described as 'The Dome' offers extensive accommodation over two floors. It was designed to incorporate an annexe on the ground floor but could be remodelled to suit the purchasers requirements.

The property includes a range of farm buildings including a building used for stabling, a Dutch barn and a former grain store. The area to the south of the buildings is laid to grass and could be used as a grazing paddock.

'THE DOME'
The Dome was converted from a former agricultural building to a dwelling following consent under the General Permitted Development Order in 2017. The design incorporates large areas of glazing on the eastern elevation, giving far reaching views over open countryside from the first floor bedroom. The extensive accommodation has been occupied as a main dwelling with an integral annexe and the gardens have been divided accordingly. Prospective purchasers could continue with this arrangement or remodel the layout and outside space to create one larger dwelling.

The accommodation, which has been imaginatively incorporated into the dome of the building, includes a large open plan kitchen, living and dining area, three bathrooms and four bedrooms in the main part of the house together with an additional kitchen, shower room, sitting room and bedroom in the annexe.
